![]() Here, we can adjust the layer height, as well as the layer height of the first layer. Let us navigate over to “Print Settings.” Quality prints take a longer time since the print speed is decreased, while Speed, as the name suggests, optimizes the print for high speed but lower print accuracy. The descriptor like QUALITY or SPEED gives the general performance of the 3D printer. The length measurement here is the layer height (elaborated on below). Under the drop down menu there are various mm settings and descriptors. We will stay in the Simple settings range. These simple settings are what you typically need and can cover most use cases. Prusa Knowledge Base | Print Settings Print Settings There are a lot of cool tips and tricks in those articles, so we’d recommend you to take a look through as well if you want to improve your 3D prints: Prusa’s own knowledge base on all of the different Slicer settings are also very useful, complete with graphics to help visualize. Here is a great in-depth video tutorial (36 min) that we recommend you to watch and use the remainder of this guide as a cheat sheet to reference later: PrusaSlicer: An In-Depth Walkthrough from Install to Print There are many factors that can affect the print quality, speed, and strength.
